Cohort differences in the Longitudinal Aging Study Amsterdam (LASA)
Life span psychological and life course sociological perspectives have long acknowledged the role of historical and sociocultural contexts for individuals’ functioning and development. Secular increases favoring older adults in later born cohorts are widely documented for fluid cognitive performance and well-being. However, less is known about secular trends in further key resources of psychosocial functioning, such as perceptions of constraints, and how these are driven by and associated with well-established and probably interrelated secular trends in several individual difference characteristics, including sociodemographic, religiosity, physical health, cognitive, and social variables.
